Rating: 10/10 (7 February 2004)

28 days later begins I think much the way a sequel to Resident Evil the movie would begin. Jim wakes up in a hospital bed surrounded by drips and wires but no people, he gets up to find the door of his hospital room has been locked and the key pushed under the door. He puts on some clothes and makes his way through the hospital, it is completely deserted. As is the streets which are littered with rubbish, he begins to collect things off the streets he feels he may need, drinks, and even money, he carries them in a plastic bag, it is so quiet you could hear a pin drop. He makes his way through the city until he comes to what seems to be a shrine, it is covered in pictures of 'loved ones' the pictures include photos of families, even young children. Jim still doesn't know what has happened but things are beginning to piece together bit by bit. Common sense tells him something has taken out the population although he doesn't know yet it was a virus. He enters a chapel, as he walks along the upper balcony he looks down over the 'congregation' to see bodies scattered around everywhere, there doesn't seem to be anyone left alive, that is until Jim says 'Hello'...

28 days later is a classic end of the world movie. These type of movies are my favourite kind of thriller. As I said before if you have seen Resident Evil the movie I am sure you would agree that this movie could almost be a continuation of what would happen with a sequel to it. The scariest thing for me about the movie was the speed of the infected. They are much like zombies, once the virus enters the bloodstream the victim becomes infected within 10-20 seconds, not much time to say your goodbyes. However these 'zombies' move fast, gone are the days of movies like 'Day Of The Dead', where if you had to you could just run past your attacker! Once these critters are on your tail they are hard to shake off.
